Apple ID won't accept debit card?

I have an ANZ Visa Debit card I am trying to link to my Apple Id and it keeps coming up with an error saying it can't be accepted? Why?

Not all debit cards work with iTunes, try a different card (preferably a credit card).


For a card to have a chance of being accepted it needs to be registered to the same name and address (including format and spacing etc) that you have on your iTunes account, and have been issued by a bank in the country where you are (and therefore the country which is on your iTunes account).
